Materials for the study of xylomicetocomplex of coniferous species of state nature reserve ‘Stolby’

Mycobiota of xylotrophic macromycetes of State Nature Reserve "Stolby" (Krasnoyarsk Region), the study of which began in the early XX century, is still insufficiently studied. The aim of this research is the study of species diversity of the xylotrophic macromycetes of coniferous species in various plant associations of the nature reserve "Stolby" (mainly tourist areas). The studies of xylomicetocomplex living trees, deadwood, and deadwood of conifers (Pinus sylvestris L., Pinus sibirica Du Tour, Abies sibirica Ledeb., Picea obovata Ledeb., Larix sibirica Ledeb.), held in 2014-2016 targeting method and method sample plots, 59 species of wood-destroying fungi sub-strates were identified. Found fungi are represented by mostly common for Siberia species. Many of them have the potential to show a wide trophic specialization, but only a few species were identi-fied with varying degree of occurrence in all five coniferous species of the reserve, other inhabit only a few tree species, generally rare in the reserve. 12 species are capable of parasitizing. Most fungi found on coniferous trees act as obligate saprotrophs of utilizing tree mortality. The number of fungi associated with some tree species, fir is leading, and pine has the second highest number of fungi inhabiting tree conifers, followed by spruce, larch and cedar. The four discovered species are rare (Ganoderma lucidum, S. Crispa, Cystoderma fallax, Pseudohydnum gelatinosum) and protected. Thus, the conducted study allowed identifying 59 species of xylotrophic macromycetes coniferous trees of the nature reserve ‘Stolby’, and showed the need for further research on this important group of forest mushrooms.
